EDINBURGH head coach Alan Solomons this week explains his vision for creating a successful Scottish club to the Daily Record Rugby Show, and states why that meant resisting throwing in young Scottish talent early.

The former South Africa coach, who enjoyed great success with the Springboks and Ulster before coming to Scotland, was roundly criticised when he took over at the capital club and imported a strong core of feign talent from his native South Africa as well as New Zealand and Australia.

There were fears that opportunities for young Scots to develop would be lost.

However, after he steered Edinburgh to a stunning European Challenge Cup semi-final win over Newport Gwent Dragons last week, and into the first European final for a Scottish club in history, Solomons is now being hailed as the great turnaround expert.

He still has his sights on clinching a top six place in the Guinness PRO12 and knows that his team must follow up the cup triumph with victory over Italian strugglers Zebre at BT Murrayfield tonight to stay on track.

In this week's exclusive rugby show, the coach and versatile forward Stuart McInally tell us about the Edinburgh vision, how the club has been turned around and how the team is preparing for an historic final few weeks to the season.
